Best Vegan Restaurants in Exeter

What a lovely pre-Christmas lunch, such a lovely waitress who was attentive and friendly. Great good, thanks again Bills x

Excellent customer service always checking on us, they were very busy but didn’t matter as they had loads of amazing staff on, there was a lovely atmosphere and the room out the back is beautiful light and warm very welcoming. Thank you for amazing food a little wait but it didn’t matter as the staff kept us informed. Thank you for a lovely afternoon lunch.

If you’ve read anything about Stage at all before this, nothing I can say will come as a surprise. Stage comes across as a total labour of love for the guys running the show. They’re doing what drives them and what they clearly thoroughly enjoy. In the kitchen and front of house. The Taco Boys are on a mission and I felt extremely lucky to be able to go along for the ride with them. There is a total enthusiasm about their food and drinks which is genuinely infectious. The result is a fine dining experience at a non-exorbitant cost: all the enjoyment of creatively imagined, painstakingly sourced and prepared food, introduced to the table with relaxed, fun, and informative style and panache. I have no idea where it would be possible to experience the same levels of culinary ingenuity and sheer enjoyment at such good value for money. So it’s not over the top to use the word unique to describe what just happened. That wasn’t simply an excellent meal, we were actually blown away by the entire show.

We had an issue with one dish: the nut roast was delayed by over 40 minutes during the Sunday carvery. The manager was very apologetic and offered us free drinks for the inconvenience. We were happy they put the issue right and the rest of the meal was very good.

We love Pho, the staff, the food all perfect. Last night we had a long wait for our food because the place was packed and they had only four staff on. I think there is so many viruses around and staff issues everywhere. Having been ill myself I sympathise! That said they were coping admirably and we remain big Pho fans. Merry Christmas to all at Pho.
